Six former holiday flats with redevelopment potential near Blackpool Promenade, sold at auction..
- Two Victorian three-storey houses on separate title deeds
A rare investment parcel in Bispham: two substantial Victorian three-storey period houses sold together on separate title deeds, previously arranged as six part self-contained holiday flats. Located close to Blackpool Promenade, local entertainments and high-street amenities, the properties offer immediate scope for serviced accommodation (subject to planning permission). The site includes off-street parking for four vehicles and occupies a large plot in a seaside town location.
No.4 has been partly refurbished and benefited from a damp-proof course in 2021; No.6 was K-rendered in 2024. The properties are being sold at auction on a freehold basis and are described as newly renovated in places, but the former flats will need further works and reconfiguration to achieve full serviced-accommodation use or separate lettable units. Viewing is recommended to assess finish levels and remaining refurbishment costs.
Key positives are location, period character and clear redevelopment potential for short-stay lets or multiple apartments (STPP). Important considerations: sale via online auction, the local area is classified as very deprived which may affect rental demand and values, and planning consent will be required to operate serviced accommodation. The vendor’s team has not inspected internally; buyers should carry out their own due diligence and surveys before bidding.
